Echoes of Fort Assiniboine and District - Religion Pt.3

Fort Assiniboine August 1948 Saint Paul Diocese was formed and

Barrhead and Missions including Fort Assiniiboine and other parishes extending to the Arch Diocese of Gr-ouard-McLennon were no longer under Edmonton Arch Diocese.

Most Rev. Bishop Baudoux D.D. was consecrated October 28, 1948, and was appointed to St. Paul, Aberta until March 12, 1952, when he was transferred to the Arch Diocese of St. Boniface, Manitoba. In 1949, Fr. Poirier fi nished work on the inside of the church. (The

2. Targeted circulation. We researched Whitecourt's trading area so that our circulation covers areas that are likely to shop in Whitecourt,.

3. Total Market Coverage. We cover Whitecourt's trading area. Every month, approximately 4,000 copies of the Community Advisor are mailed to Blue Ridge, Carrot Creek, Fox Creek, Ft. Assiniboine, Mayerthorpe, Peers, Sangudo, Swan Hills and Whitecourt. We also drop off 1,250 additional copies at coffee shops etc.

4 Our handy booklet format. It costs signifi cantly more to produce, but it means your advertisment is likely to stay in circulation longer.

5. Monthly Production. You can consistently advertise for a fraction of the cost of a weekly. For example, you can pay just $44.95 a month for a 1/8 page B&W Ad with a six month booking.

Over the next few weeks, thousands of Albertans – many of them students leaving home and heading to out-of-town universities and colleges – will rent their fi rst accommodations.

Gather solid information before you start your search. Service Alberta has prepared a helpful resource – A Roof Over Your Head – with information for people renting their fi rst apartments, signing up for utilities contracts, hiring movers, insuring their belongings, etc.

A number of other Service Alberta resources for ten-ants contain handy checklists, including many common questions would-be tenants should ask a prospective land-lord. For instance:

Is the lease for a fi xed amount of time or month-• to-month?When/where will the rent be paid? What happens • if it is late?Who do you contact if there is a problem?• Are sublets allowed? What about a roommate?•

Signing a lease before exchanging keys and rent cheques

Helpful tips for students and first-time renters

can avoid most misunderstandings. Renters are advised to beware of potential scams. For example, be cautious about relying on online photos or answering any urgent requests to pay deposits through online money transfers.

Once you’ve chosen accommodation, there are rules in place and dispute resolution is available. Alberta’s Residential Tenancies Act (RTA) sets out rules when the lease involves a self-contained rental unit such as an apartment or a basement suite in a private home.

The RTA does not apply when renting a spare bed-room if you share common areas such as kitchen and bathroom with your landlord. Get the RTA Handbook and Quick Reference Guide for more information about what types of accommodations are covered.

First-time renters should be aware there is no cap on rent increases, but rent for both periodic (month-to-month) and fi xed-term tenancies can only increase once per year. Three months’ notice is required before in-creasing rent on periodic tenancies.

More information about landlord and tenant legislation is available on the Service Alberta website or by calling the Consumer Contact Centre toll-free at 1-877-427-4088.

Global Justice forces opt for strategic retreat in Greece

By Ellen Brown

(Ed- Canada could eliminate its odious in similar fashion to the so-lutions proposed below). The crush-ing Greek debt could be canceled the way it was made – by sleight of hand. But saving the Greek people and their economy is evidently not in the game plan of the Eurocrats.

Greece’s creditors have fi nally brought the country to its knees, forcing President Alexis Tsipras to agree to aus-terity and privatization measures more severe than those overwhelmingly rejected by popular vote a week earlier. No write-down of Greece’s debt was included in the deal, although the IMF has warned that the current debt is un-sustainable.

Former Greek fi nance minister Yanis Varoufakis calls the deal “a new Versailles Treaty” and “the politics of humiliation.” Greek defense minister Panos Kammenos calls it a “coup d’état” done by “blackmailing the Greek prime minister with collapse of the banks and a complete haircut on deposits.”

“Blackmail” is not too strong a word. The European Central Bank has turned off its liquidity tap for Greece’s banks, something all banks need, as explained earlier here. All banks are technically insolvent, lending money they don’t have. They don’t lend their deposits but create deposits when they make loans, as the Bank of England recently confi rmed. When the depositors and borrowers come for their money at the same time, the bank must borrow from other banks; and if that liquidity runs dry,


Human rights hero inspires on Canada tour

NC) Canadians recently had the opportunity to meet a human rights hero—and someone they helped free from jail.

In 2009, Mexican police tortured and falsely accused Ángel Amílcar Colón Quevedo, and he spent the next fi ve years in prison until a campaign backed by Canadians helped free him. Recently Ángel visited Canada and met with some of the people who worked for his release.

Ángel had been a human rights defender in Hondu-ras, working for the rights of the Garifuna ethnic group. When his eight-year old son became gravely ill with can-cer, Ángel tried to reach the USA to fi nd a job to pay for medical treatment. Police arrested him in northern Mexico and his nightmare began.

Ángel was blindfolded and taken to a military base where he could hear the screams of other prisoners. He was kicked, punched and racially abused. He fought for breath when a plastic bag was put over his head. He was stripped and forced to lick clean the shoes of other pris-oners.

Ángel signed a false confession that he was a mem-ber of a criminal gang—a confession he retracted when brought before a judge. Ángel told the authorities about the torture. The authorities did nothing. Six months after Ángel’s arrest, his son died.

Canadians stood with Ángel in his struggle for jus-tice. Supporters in Canada of the human rights organiza-tion Amnesty International (amnesty.ca) urged the Mexi-can authorities to free Ángel and investigate his torture. Thousands sent solidarity messages to him.

"Look for the big tower"

Canada is engaged in the same fi ght for freedom against the same monetary forces attacking Greece (see Ellen Brown p. 6). At present our mu-nicipal, provincial and federal govern-ments pay about $62 billion in interest to privately owned entities, with the original money loaned being created from nothing. How our money is created is quite likely the biggest scam in history infl icted on people by elites.

Interest payments on personal loans from banks fol-low the same criteria. In essence, all of the payments of interest on money created from nothing is identical to a conquered country paying tribute to a conqueror. All that is different is that previously, conquerors openly demand-ed tribute, while today the same confi scation of wealth is brought about through deception, with the mainstream media leading the way.

There is the old canard that we owe it to ourselves, but the reality is that ‘ourselves’ only includes a minor percentage of each country’s population.

“In essence, the present creation of money, out of nothing by

the banking system, is similar - I do not hesitate to say it in

order to make people clearly realize what is at stake here - to the creation of money by

counterfeiters, so rightly condemned by law.”

“In fact, without any exaggeration, the

current mechanism of money creation through credit is

certainly the “cancer” that’s irretrievably

eroding market economies of private

property.”

- Nobel Laureate economist Maurice

A team from Amnesty Canada visited Ángel in prison in the fall of 2014. Ángel was deeply moved to hear that so many people in Canada were working for his freedom. Finally, all the pressure paid off. Just a month after the Amnesty visit, the Mexican authorities freed Ángel.

Despite the terrible injustices he experienced, Ángel still believes strongly in forgiveness. On his recent visit to Canada, he shared this emotional message: “Forgive-ness is a decision. Forgiveness frees you from carrying a burden. Evil memories will always come back to you, but if you forgive, because you have the standard to forgive, then when those evil memories come again, they will not upset you. They will always be there, but because you have set yourself free from the people who have done you wrong, they do not control you anymore.”

Jim Rennie Sr. Celebration of Life

A pillar of the Whitecourt community passed away recently. Jim Rennie Senior, father to Woodlands Coun-ty Mayor Jim Rennie Jr. and Tara Rennie, played a major role in the development of the town and surrounding area, as well as Taekwondo, both in Whitecourt and province-wide under the Taekwondo Alliance of Alberta.

Jim Sr. was a 7th Dan Taekwondo Master and was a part of helping nearly 200 people in Whitecourt and over 2,000 Albertans achieving Black Belts.

There was a celebration of Jim Rennie Sr’s life at 1 p.m on Friday at Central School on July 31.

Jim Rennie Sr. was born in Bassano, AB on Decem-ber 29, 1950 to Jim and Lettye Rennie and died on Juny 6, 2015, surrounded by loving family and friends.

Jim Sr. is survived by his wife, Deanna; son Jim (Sarah) Rennie; grandchildren Hannah, Isabel and James; daughter Tara (Barry) Farnsworth; granddaugh-ter Emmy James all of Whitecourt, AB; sister Lorna Rennie of Victoria, B.C.; Aunt Helen Fulton of Brooks, AB and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.

A powered parachute often abbreviated PPC, and also called a motorised parachute or paraplane, is a type of ultralight aircraft that consists of a para-chute with a motor and wheels.

The aircraft’s airspeed is typically about 25–35 mph (40–60 km/h). PPCs operate safely at heights ranging from a few feet off the ground (while ground skimming, a popular use of the aircraft) to altitudes as high as 18,000+ feet (5.5 km).

Equipped with the standard 5 or 10 gallon fuel tank, PPCs can typically be fl own for about three hours. They have very short take-off and landing rolls, sometimes less than 100 ft (30 m). PPCs are among the least expensive aerial vehicles. A new one-person powered parachute may cost as little as $5,000.

PPCs are often considered to be safer than nor-mal fi xed-wing aircraft because of their inherent stability, limited response to control inputs, and stall resistance. The main hazards one faces while fl ying a powered parachute are associated with wind and obstacles. Flight should not be attempted in winds exceeding 10–15 mph or in gusty conditions.- From the Internet

Within the 24 months preceding the date of ap-plication for the permit, the applicant shall have acquired a minimum of 5 hours of fl ight time, in-cluding a minimum of 30 takeoffs and landings, in a powered parachute (powered para-glider) under the direction and supervision of the holder of a fl ight instructor rating-ultra-light aeroplane or -aeroplane. Given the confi guration of powered para-gliders, which usually only have one place, the fl ight time and takeoffs and landings will be conducted by the student-pilot in solo fl ight. - See Transport Canada for more

An investment banker decides she needs in-house counsel, so she interviews a young lawyer.

“Mr. Peterson,” she says. “Would you say you’re honest?”

“Honest?” replies Peterson. “Let me tell you some-thing about honesty. My father lent me $85,000 for my education, and I paid back every penny the minute I tried my fi rst case.”

“Impressive. And what sort of case was that?”“Dad sued me for the money.”Every Tool is the Right Tool

Jet boats provide Whitecourt tourist opportunity

The Whitecourt jet boat races provide a good oppor-tunity for Whitecourt to showcase its summer outdoor attractions to the million plus people less than 2 hours away. Due to the fl eeting nature of the event, the races could possibly be marketed in conjunction with other events such as camping in the back of Rotary Park for the weekend.

Riverboat Park was fi lled to capacity on the day of the fi nals, but the natural unoffi cial viewing areas meant all could participate. In the photos on this page, people access the river near the Athabasca bridge.

Preventing water related fatalities: National

Drowning Prevention Week

The Lifesaving Society and STARS air ambulance partnered-up across Western Can-ada to promote water safety, as they held an event during National Drowning Prevention Week from July 19 to 25, 2015. Approximate-ly 500 Canadians drown every year, including 28 Albertans, 22 Saskatchewanians, and 15 Manitobans in 2014.

“Water-related fatalities are preventable” said Lifesaving Society Chief Administrative Offi cer Barbara Costache. “Drowning is often only talked about when a fatality occurs; we need to talk about drowning prevention every day.”

Early 9-1-1 activation, good CPR, and the use of an automated external defi brillator (AED) can increase survival, but prevention is paramount.

“Our highly experienced nurses and paramedics have extensive training to care for critical patients. However, resuscitating a patient is challenging, even with advanced medical training and equipment,” says STARS president and CEO Andrea Robertson. “Pre-vention is most important, and that’s why we are sup-porting the Lifesaving Society’s safety campaign.”

Following are ways the public can reduce the risks of drowning:

Never leave children alone near water. And • stay close – always within arms’ reach.Designate an adult to supervise children in or • around water.

Have 100% attention when supervising, by • putting away distractions like cellphones. Watch the face – especially the eyes. Many • victims don’t call, wave, or signal for help be-cause they can’t keep their head or arms above water.Young children and non-swimmers should • wear a lifejacket.Check for hazards in and around water, and • know your limits. Never swim alone or while intoxicated. •

In addition to supervision, swimming is a life skill

that every child should learn – and the Lifesaving Soci-ety points out that teaching children survival swimming skills is like an immunization against drowning. They recommend taking Parent & Tot lessons at your local pool to give toddlers a positive introduction to water, and looking for swimming lessons for older children. More information and additional water safety tips are available at lifesaving.org.

Whitecourt Council Month in ReviewThanks to two donations the Town of Whitecourt

will be installing shade shelters at Rotary Park. The fi rst donation is from Alberta Newsprint Company (ANC) and Gannett Co. for $20,000 to help celebrate its 25th Anniversary of operations in Whitecourt. The second donation will be $38,522 from the Lorne Lemay Benefi t Fund in the memory of Lorne Lemay who was a long time resident of Whitecourt.

Council reviewed and approved the Financial Sum-mry and Statement of Revenue and Expenditures for the period ending June 30, 2015.

Council adopted Bylaw 1508 to enter into a Devel-opment Agreement with Avion Developments Inc. for 27 new residential lots located north of Mink Creek Road. The new road entering into the development has been named “Rockridge Point” and the internal road through the subdivision will be named “Riverdale Bend”.

Ever Green Ecological Services, who normally col-lects residential recycling within the town, was recently sold to Green for Lift Environmental Corporation. Due to this sale Council has approved the new assignment with a three year extension for residential recycling pickup services to Green for Life Environmental Cor-poration.

UPDATE ON RESIDENTIAL WASTE COLLEC-TION. The contractor that provides curbside waste col-

lection services within Whitecourt was recently bought out by GFL Environmental (previously Ever Green Eco-logical Services). Residents may notice a new truck col-lecting rolling waste carts, and new drivers have been assigned to our community.

Sunday at United Church, Fort Assiniboine.

late Mr. Al Schulte moved to Barrhead with his family to live after fl oods from the Athabasca forced them to leave Pride Valley, also Mrs. Herman Schulte who moved to Fort Assiniboine and opened up a restaurant). Mr. Albert Schulte found work elsewhere. Later the Sisters of St. Joseph from Pembroke came to Barrhead to take charge of the old hospital which had been bought and renovated for them. They donated the pictures of the “Stations of the Cross” which Father Poirier placed on the walls. A Polish family of Topland (Wardinsky) donated money which they gave to Fr. Poirier to buy a large bell to put in the tower of the Church at the Fort, but it was never placed there.

Bishop Baudoux held Confi rmation in Barrhead and the Sisters of Smoky Lake had two girls stay at Mrs. Walsh’s for instruction of the Catholic children. Fr. Poir-ier made all the pews and the parishioners paid ten dol-lars per family. A large furnace was put in the basement for wood and coal which was brought there by the Cath-olic families, and whoever arrived fi rst on Mass days lit the fi re. The lumber that was left over was piled on the inside by the wall by Fr. Poirier’s instructions. Bishop Baudoux came out with Fr. Poirier to Mrs. Walsh’s and blessed the church, giving it the name and placing it un-der the patron Saint of Priests. “St. John Vianney, Cath-olic Church of Fort Assiniboine.” Later a statue of St. John Vianney was donated by a family and is in the Fort

Assiniboine R.C. Church, at present, also other statues donated by families who are now deceased.

Newcomers to Holmes Crossing were Mr. and Mrs. Paddy McKeigue and their children (Catholics) and Fr. Poirier formed the Altar Society Guild of all Catholic women attending St. J. V. Church, offi cers of President and Secretary-Treasurer were voted in. Bishop Baudoux was replaced by Most Rev. P. Lussier who resigned in 1968 and the Most Rev. E. Gagnon was appointed Bishop of St. Paul February 1969. He left in May 1972. Bishop Raymond Roy was the next Bishop and he is now resid-ing at the Bishop’s residence, at St. Paul.

Mrs. Eva McKeigue was elected Secretary-Treasurer of the Altar Society of St. John Vianney’s R.C. Church, Fort Assiniboine. The Machtemas family remained at Pride Valley. When the Church was built and fi nished, Fr. Poirier appointed three trustees: Jack Pettit, Albert Schulte and Mike Machtemas. The new Parish of Swan Hills was added to Barrhead as a Mission and Fr. L. Morrisette was appointed to act as Curate to Fr. Poirier, living in the rectory at Barrhead.

The trustees wanted Fr. Poirier to put electricity in the Church for lights as the electric light pole was op-posite the door, but he objected.

A meeting of the Altar Society ladies was called and they decided to hold a tea in the village of Fort Assini-boine as many residents were living there then.

The parishioners of St. John Vianney Church (with few exceptions) decided to have a choir and an organ. Mrs. Jack Pettit, a newcomer of 1935, and her husband, Jack, were living on a farm three miles from the Catholic Church, St. John Vianney. Mrs. Pettit who had been a school teacher and music teacher as well as organist in the Parish Church where she had lived was chosen to collect enough money to buy an organ in Edmonton and be the organist of the Fort Assiniboine Catholic Church. She and her husband Jack volunteered to drive to Top-land and collect from the Catholics there (ten dollars per family), and also from the families living in Pride Valley and Fort Assiniboine.

Mike Machtemas, the oldest son of Mr. John Machtemas, Pride Valley, volunteered (as he had a nice truck) to take Jack and Mrs. Pettit to Edmonton to buy

the organ as they had collected enough money, which she did with the approval of Jack and Mike, after play-ing it, and a few others there (Heintzman and Co. Music Store).

Masses at St. J. V. Church had been discontinued on Saturday mornings, and Fr. Poirier came Sunday after-noon once or twice a month in the 1950’s. The organ was brought by Mike to the Church Sunday afternoon and all the Catholic men placed it; Mrs. Pettit formed a choir of good singers to sing that day, viz: Mike Machtemas and his brother, Joe, Ed Rondeau and the two Sons who were just young boys but had beautiful voices, viz: Louis and Charlie Rondeau, and some of the ladies stood around the organ and sang hymns appropriate for the day. Mrs. Pettit wrote the names of the donors and the amount each gave on a sheet of paper for the purchase of the or-gan and “Paid In Full”. Jack Pettit and Mike Machtemas (trustees) hung it on the wall behind the organ where all could read it, but it was removed in later years by some-one unknown to the parishioners.

Father Poirier asked if all were in favor of a Mass being held on Christmas Day, so the choir had to sing in Latin, Mrs. Pettit taught the singers once a week after supper with the aid of a gas lantern or two held by Mike and Joe Machtemas.

(Continued from page 21)Families of 1948-1960 moved from there. Mrs.

Walsh died, also many others, which made the congre-gation smaller at St. John Vianney Church.

In 1961, Jack Pettit (deceased) felt his health failing and farm work too much sold the land and all equipment privately and he and Mrs. Pettit moved to Barrhead and retired. We rented until 1975. Fr. Poirier became ill in Barrhead and went to Edmonton in 1962. He was re-placed by Fr. Terre who held services at St. J. V. Church for about three years, Fr. Tanguay replaced him but he was transferred to St. Paul, Alberta, and Fr. Edmond Croteau was appointed Parish Priest of Barrhead and Missions Fort Assiniboine and the Parish of Swan Hills in 1975 until he was transferred to St. Paul Diocese. A Priest from Whitecourt is Parish Priest of Barrhead since.

While the company transitions, there may be an oc-casional delay in collection service as drivers learn the new route and our community. In an effort to ensure waste collection service is completed as effi ciently and effectively as possible, we remind residents of the fol-lowing:

• Carts must be placed on the street by 7am, with the wheels against the curb and 1 metre from any obstacles (parked vehicles, etc.) The collection arm on the auto-mated truck requires space to make the collection move-ment safely so it will not tip over other carts or damage property. Carts placed within 1 metre of any obstacle may not be collected.

• Those that live in a cul de sac are reminded that on-street parking on waste collection days is prohibited. Signs are posted to remind residents of this regulation. The Town of Whitecourt thanks residents for their pa-tience and understanding.

RIDE WHITECOURT TRANSIT FOR FREE ON SATURDAYS THIS SUMMER.

A discounted Youth Summer Pass is now available to students for the months of July and August that will help get students to and from work, or just around town as they enjoy the sum-mer holiday.

Whitecourt Transit launched in September 2014, and a complete review of the service is scheduled for fall 2015 by the Whitecourt Transit Steering Committee. For more information on Whitecourt Transit, including the route, stops and fares, visit www.whitecourt.ca.

the bank turns to the central bank, the lender of last resort empowered to create money at will. Without the central bank’s backstop, banks must steal from their depositors with “haircuts” or they will collapse.

What did Greece do to deserve this coup d’état? Ac-cording to former World Bank economist Peter Koenig:

“[T]he Greek people, the citizens of a sovereign country . . . have had the audacity to democratically elect a socialist government. Now they have to suffer. They do not conform to the self-imposed rules of the neoliberal empire of unrestricted globalized privatization of pub-lic services and public properties from which the elite is maximizing profi ts – for themselves, of course. It is out-right theft of public property.”

According to a July 5th article titled Greece – The One Biggest Lie You’re Being Told By The Media, the country did not fail on its own. It was made to fail:

“[T]he banks wrecked the Greek government, and then deliberately pushed it into unsustainable debt . . . while revenue-generating public assets were sold off to oligarchs and international corporations.”

A Truth Committee convened by the Greek parlia-ment reported in June that a major portion of the coun-try’s €320 billion debt is “illegal, illegitimate and odious” and should not be paid.

How to Cut the Debt Without Loss to the Bondholders

The debt cannot be paid and should not be paid, but EU leaders justify their hard line as necessary to save the creditors from having to pay – the European taxpay-ers, governments, institutions, and banks holding Greek bonds. It is quite possible to grant debt relief, however, without hurting the bondholders. US banks were bailed out by the US Federal Reserve to the tune of more than $16 trillion in virtually interest-free loans, without draw-ing on taxes. Central banks have a printing press that al-lows them to create money at will.

The ECB has already embarked on this sort of debt purchasing program. In January, it announced it would purchase 60 billion euros of debt assets per month begin-ning in March, continuing to at least September 2016, for a total of €1.14 trillion of asset purchases. These assets

are being purchased through “quantitative easing” – expanding the monetary base simply with accounting entries on the ECB’s books.

The IMF estimates that Greece needs debt relief of €60 billion – a mere one month of the ECB’s quantita-tive easing program. The ECB could solve Greece’s problem with a few computer keystrokes. Moreover, in today’s defl ationary environment, the effect would actually be to stimulate the European economy. As fi -nancial writer Richard Duncan observes:

“When a central bank prints money and buys a government bond, it is the same thing as cancelling that bond (so long as the central bank does not sell the bond back to the public).

. . . The European Central Bank’s plans to create €1.1 trillion over the next 20 months will effectively cancel the combined budget defi cits of the Eurozone national governments in both 2015 and 2016, with a considerable amount left over.”

Quantitative Easing has only been possible because it has occurred at a time when Globalization is driv-ing down the price of labor and industrial goods. The combination of fi at money and Globalization creates a unique moment in history where the governments of the developed economies can print money on an ag-gressive scale without causing infl ation.

They should take advantage of this once-in-history opportunity to borrow more in order to invest in new industries and technologies, to restructure their econo-mies and to retrain and educate their workforce at the post-graduate level. If they do, they could not only end the global economic crisis, but also ensure that the standard of living in the developed world continues to improve, rather than sinking down to third world lev-els.

That is how it works for Germany after World War II. According to economist Michael Hudson, the most successful debt jubilee in recent times was gifted to Germany, the country now most opposed to doing the same for Greece. The German Economic Miracle fol-lowed massive debt forgiveness by the Allies:

“All domestic German debts were annulled, ex-cept employer wage debts to their labor force, and ba-

sic working balances. Later, in 1953, its international debts were written down.”

Why not do the same for the Greeks? Hudson writes:

“It was easy to write down debts that were owed to Nazis. It is much harder to do so when the debts are owed to powerful and entrenched institutions – especially to banks.”

Loans Created with Accounting Entries Can Be Canceled with Accounting Entries

That may be true for non-bank creditors. But for banks, recall that the money owed to them is not taken from the accounts of depositors. It is simply created with accounting entries on the books. (Editor’s note: This is the same system as used in Canada where the money is literally created out of thin air, subject to a small capital adequacy requirement. This itself is easily overcome with creative accounting. The entire shebang is set in place by the Bank of Banks — Think Boss of Bosses— in Basel, Switerland; known as the Bank of International Settle-ments.)

The loans could be canceled the same way. To the extent that the Greek debt is owed to the ECB, the IMF and other fi nancial institutions, that is another option for canceling it.

British economist Michael Rowbotham explored that possibility in 1998 for the onerous Third World debts owed to the World Bank and IMF. He wrote that of the $2.2 trillion debt then outstanding, the vast majority was money simply created by commercial banks. It represent-ed a liability on the banks’ books only because the rules of banking said their books must be balanced. He sug-

(Continued from page 28) gested two ways the rules might be changed to liquidate unfair and oppressive debts:

“The fi rst option is to remove the obligation on banks to maintain parity between assets and liabilities, or, to be more precise, to allow banks to hold reduced levels of as-sets equivalent to the Third World debt bonds they cancel. Thus, if a commercial bank held $10 billion worth of de-veloping country debt bonds, after cancellation it would be permitted in perpetuity to have a $10 billion dollar defi cit in its assets. This is a simple matter of record-keeping.”

The second option, and in accountancy terms proba-bly the more satisfactory (although it amounts to the same policy), is to cancel the debt bonds, yet permit banks to retain them for purposes of accountancy.

The Real Roadblock Is Political

The Eurocrats could end the economic crisis by writ-ing off odious unrepayable debt either through quantita-tive easing or by changing bank accounting rules. But ending the crisis is evidently not what they are up to. As Michael Hudson puts it, “fi nance has become the modern-day mode of warfare. Its objectives are the same: acquisi-tion of land, raw materials and monopolies.” He writes:

“Greece, Spain, Portugal, Italy and other debtor coun-tries have been under the same mode of attack that was waged by the IMF and its austerity doctrine that bank-rupted Latin America from the 1970s onward.”

Prof. Richard Werner, who was on the scene as the European Union evolved, maintains that the intent for the EU from the start was the abandonment of national sov-ereignty in favor of a single-currency system controlled by eurocrats doing the bidding of international fi nanciers.

The model was fl awed from the beginning. The solution, he says, is for EU countries to regain their national sover-eignty by leaving the euro en masse. He writes:

“By abandoning the euro, each country would re-gain control over monetary policy and could thus solve their own particular predicament. Some, such as Greece, may default, but its central bank could limit the damage by purchasing the dud bonds from banks at face value and keeping them on its balance sheet without marking to market (central banks have this option, as the Fed showed again in October 2008). Banks would then have stronger balance sheets than ever, they could create credit again, and in exchange for this costless bailout central banks could insist that bank credit – which cre-ates new money – is only allowed for transactions that contribute to GDP in a sustainable way. Growth without crises and large-scale unemployment could then be ar-ranged.”

But Dr. Werner acknowledges that this is not likely to happen soon. Brussels has been instructed by Presi-dent Obama, no doubt instructed by Wall Street, to hold the euro together at all costs.

The Promise and Perils of Grexit

The creditors may have won this round, but Greece’s fi nancial woes are far from resolved. After the next fi nan-cial crisis, it could still fi nd itself out of the EU. If the Greek parliament fails to endorse the deal just agreed to by its president, “Grexit” could happen even earlier. And that could be the Black Swan event that ultimately breaks up the EU. It might be in the interests of the creditors to con-sider a debt jubilee to avoid that result, just as the Allies felt it was in their interests to expunge German debts after World War II.

For Greece, leaving the EU may be perilous; but it opens provocative possibilities. The government could na-tionalize its insolvent banks along with its central bank, and start generating the credit the country desperately needs to get back on its feet. If it chose, it could do this while still using the euro, just as Ecuador uses the US dollar without being part of the US.

If Greece switches to drachmas, the funding possibili-ties are even greater. It could generate the money for a na-tional dividend, guaranteed employment for all, expanded social services, and widespread investment in infrastruc-ture, clean energy, and local business. Freed from its Eu-


rocrat oppressors, Greece could model for the world what can be achieved by a sovereign country using publicly-owned banks and publicly-issued currency for the benefi t of its own econo-my and its own people.
